Lost Years of Zora Neale HurstonWriter, folklorist and anthropologist Zora Neale Hurston, a celebrated (and sometimes controversial) figure of the Harlem Renaissance, first rose to prominence with Mules and Men (1935) and cemented her reputation soon after with her 1937 masterwork, Their Eyes Were Watching God. However, few know about the woman behind this widely read and highly acclaimed novel - particularly the last 10 years of her life. This program delves into the writer's life, work and philosophies, concentrating on her very productive but often overlooked, final decade. Interviews with Hurston experts and colleagues, letters from Hurston, and archival photographs piece together this fascinating chapter in the life of an American literary icon.duration 26:48

Winslow Homer: Society and Solitude
[#102]
After 1880, Winslow Homer's painting evolved in a different way. During the final decades of his life he created a series of masterpieces that led to his reputation as the most profound visual poet of the sea, and of elemental themes of nature in general. He was the master of more than one medium: indeed, his innovative work in watercolor is - for many - an even greater achievement than the oil paintings for which he is so well known.duration 56:46
